Purdue Women’s Basketball Sells Out In Matchup Against Iowa’s Caitlin Clark!
This is so great for women’s sports! Purdue women’s basketball sells out in a matchup against Iowa’s Caitlin Clark, bloating their arena to MAX capacity. This ladies and gentlemen is the Caitlin Clark effect. Great for basketball, great for the future of sports.
Moreover, this is in general a major feat for women’s college basketball; since attendance over the years has not always been the best. As reporter, Ethan Hanson, of the Lafayette Journal and Courier confirms,
“Mackey Arena has sold out for just the fourth time in Purdue women’s basketball history with reigning Player of the Year Clark leading the Hawkeyes tonight against Purdue.
It’s the second sellout under Purdue women’s basketball coach Katie Gearlds and is the second between the Boilermakers and Hawkeyes.”
Wonderful. Also, Caitlin does not disappoint or let the crowds of fans down at all. She simply does her… and what we are all used to seeing from her. Pure dominance on the court.
Kyle Charters, voice of Purdue Baseball; recounts tonight’s brilliant display of Clark’s athleticism. Charter says,
“Triple-double for Caitlin Clark (26 points, 10 assists, 10 rebounds) as Iowa is up late at Purdue. Boilermakers have fought tonight but not enough to hang close enough.”
In the end, Iowa is the victor winning 96-71.

Nevertheless, it’s not just adoring fans coming from great distances to see the elite Caitlin Clark in action; although there are a ton of them. In the audience, there are also some notable individuals from the WNBA (Women’s National Basketball Association). Specifically, the Indiana Fever.
Sports reporter, Chloe Peterson of Indy Star Sports; reveals that representatives from the Fever attended the Purdue versus Iowa game; and this is not the first time she is seeing them come see Clark either. Peterson reveals,
“Along with a sold-out crowd, Indiana Fever assistant GM Hillary Spears and some other members of the franchise made the one-hour trek to West Lafayette tonight. This is the second time (that I know of) that the Fever have come to see Caitlin Clark play.”
Very interesting. Is Indiana hoping Caitlin will catch the “Fever?” Well, at the very least they have an eye on her.
